You really don't need to post all of these extra comments, the Moderators are only online at certain times of the day, so if you post at midnight you are not going to get a response until the next afternoon.
I assume you mean ESA rather than PIP?
No you wont automatically be transferred to ESA(CB) next year. You would have to close your existing claim, wait at least 12 weeks and then make a brand new claim, but based on your comments about doing two jobs and the hours that you have worked then I would be very surprised if you would be eligible for ESA(CB) as you still will not have acquired sufficient NI Contributions.
You've suggested several times that despite being in the Support Group that you are not receiving any payments, why is this? What have the DWP said?

The first stage to challenging a Decision is for you to request a Mandatory Reconsideration, this needs to be done in writing to the DWP, within one month of the Decision, to the office that dealt with your claim, have a look at our PIP MR & Appeal guide for details of the process, the PIP area also has template letters that you can use to make the request with.

You should contact the DWP for a copy of the assessment report if you have not already done so, I would phone them but again follow up the request in writing. Once you have the assessment report you will have a better understanding of how the DWP Decision Maker has come to their conclusions and will then be able to argue against them.
Your primary task is to show that you meet the criteria, there are many reasons you may have failed, you need to address each of these but don't get bogged down in criticising the assessment report unless you can clearly show that it is incorrect, it is a lot easier to argue the facts of the situation;
"the assessor recorded that I walked 50m, I did but they have failed to document that I had to stop every 10m for a rest due to breathlessness"
than their opinions
"based on my observations of the claimant walking I believe that they can reliably walk more than 200m.
When you have a better idea of the issues with your claim, come back to the forum and we will do our best to help.
